The role of retrospectives like this one is not lost on the International House, as they begin their write-up on the event with &ldquo;Since his death in 1989, recognition of John Cassavetes&rsquo; significance has grown steadily &ndash; a recognition that often eluded him in life.&rdquo;&nbsp; By G.

The film gives a straightforward look on crime that still takes place today in the 'rough' neighborhoods of Philadelphia. To an outside viewer, this gives a negative insight on Philadelphia culture.
